      I am a Korean. If you go to an island, visit this hostel. It's very clean. And the price is cheap. The host was very kind and always smiled. He guided me to an island and we went to the bar together. The location of the hostel is also very close to the traveler's street and easy to go anywhere because it is in the middle of the island. Thank you to the host. Ah, also there is a A/C !! 저는 한국인이고 한국인기준에서 매우좋았습니다 호스트분이 굉장히 친절하고 숙소가 일단 깨끗해요. 화장실은 공용화장실이지만 관리가 잘되어있고 남여 따로 분리되어있으며 모기도 없어요 모기가 방에 들어올 수 없는 구조임. 1인실기준 방은 작지만 1인실이니까 당연히 감안되고 호스트가 ARMY입니다! 한국인에게 특히 더 친절하신듯ㅎㅎ 리뻬섬자체가 되게 비싼데 그나마 여긴 가격도 저렴하고 가격대비 만족도 최고였습니다!

      My stay at Seahorse Lipe Hostel could not have been better! I enjoyed having a nice clean, comfortable room to myself and the hostel staff could not have made me feel more welcomed or at home. They even got me a Christmas gift and made me dinner one night! The location is perfect too, being so close to all the bars and restaurants on Walking Street. I've stayed here twice already and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

      Super near center of Koh Lipe. About 500m to Sunrise Beach. Room, bed, showers are clean. Reception staff (a guy) is polite & smiley. Something to note: wall isn’t hitting the ceiling, so, u share air-com with other rooms. U can hear if your neighbors have s e x which was not nice and weird. Luckily I heard only once for my stay 4 nights. Other than that, nice/safe/clean/all good!

      Value! ”

      It's a good value for the money. You get what you pay for. For a private room it was very well priced. The staff is nice, but there was not a big social element. No common room for guests to hang out and socialize. They offer a Nespresso machine where you can make an espresso in the morning for 30Batt (about 1USD). They offer bike rental also. If you are looking for value, this a good place to stay, it's not right on the main walking street so it won't be as loud at night, but is extremely close to all the action and the beach is about a 4 minute walk.

      The gentleman who own and runs his hostel with his wife is a rare gentle-man. He actually cares and helped me with the small details and provided valuable tips and advices traveling around Thailand. His hostel is in a very decent location, not rush- hour traffic as it's on Walking Street, but just far enough on a side alley, which is quite pleasantly quiet comes night fall. I would returns if I ever returns to Lipeh Island.

      We chose the seahorse hostel because it was among the cheapest on Lipe, but it's still too much for what you get. And what you get is basically a 10 bed mixed dorm with walls between the beds. The staff/owners are really friendly and everything was clean. But don't expect to get any sleep. Maybe we were unlucky with our neighbours throught our week or maybe we're just not made for hostels. In our defence, the photos made it look like a room with walls that reach the ceiling... So we had the full experience, from slamming doors around the clock, to conversations at 4am in normal talking voice, to two people obviously just staying there to get physically acquainted and not at all caring for the other around 18 guests trying to sleep.

      The hotel is slightly deceiving in the way it shows the rooms in images as they are not really private and is one shared area with a divider wall that has a gap at the top. We left are first night of our 3 night booking due to the heat in the room. There are 2 aircons that cover about 10 rooms. This means you don’t ever really feel cool and it makes it difficult to sleep. If you are a solo traveller this place would be fine but as a couple it’s not the best option. The room is very small and if you are taking large cars or bags you will struggle to move in the available space.

      Nicht das was ich erwartet habe.”

      Habe ein Einzelzimmer gebucht, bekommen habe ich ein semi-private Zimmer. Man hört alles, an Schlaf war bei dem Türe geknallen und dem geschnarche nicht zu denken. Erholen konnte ich mich da nicht gut. Einziger Vorteil, grosse bequeme Betten und genügend Duschen und Wc. Keine Atmosphäre vorhanden. Schlecht zum Leute kennenzulernen.

      素敵なオーナーと良いサービス”

      当日の予約でしたが、大変丁寧に対応していただきました。とても良いオーナーさんです。トイレシャワーは共有ですが部屋は個室(天井部分は空いており話し声や時々いびきは聞こえますが安心できます)部屋の中も清潔でとても快適でした。
